Re: Column wise entry in text table

For text reports, I use either column or w3m to render my reports. w3m is nice because it can render/dump html.

cat <<EOT | column -s : -t
> Numeric:Value
> 1:one
> 2:two
> 3:three
> 4:four
> 5:five
> EOT
Numeric  Value
1        one
2        two
3        three
4        four
5        five

A w3m example: `cat <<EOT \| w3m -T text/html -dump > <html> > <table border=1> > <tr> > <th>Numeric</th> > <th>Value</th> > </tr> > <tr> > <td>1</td> > <td>one</td> > </tr> > <tr> > <td>2</td> > <td>two</td> > </tr> > <tr> > <td>3</td> > <td>three</td> > </tr> > </table> > </html> > EOT` [download] ┌────────┬─────┐ │Numeric │Value│ ├────────┼─────┤ │1 │one │ ├────────┼─────┤ │2 │two │ ├────────┼─────┤ │3 │three│ └────────┴─────┘	[reply] [d/l]
